This is such an amazing coffee shop. They have amazing lattes and great customer service. I got a funnel cake ice latte a couple of weeks ago and it was amazing. They also have a punch card to earn some $ off a new drink. It's also a cute little cozy coffee shop. You should definitely check it out! read more

The counters and coffee stations look very clean which I appreciate, of course. The coffee itself is average. Nothing that I would drive out of my way for. I would have had higher hopes for the quality of coffee they used here since it's not a chain coffee shop. In order to compete, the coffee needs to be memorable. I had a drink that was on special, the nutcracker with oat milk. It wasn't real sweet which was good, but it didn't wow me. read more

Very cute little cafe with delicious crepes. The restaurant seemed clean and our food was quick and delicious. I would've liked more options for savory crepes that didn't contain eggs. I ended up getting the Nutella and strawberry crepe, which was filling and delicious. Everyone loved their food and we look forward to going back to try their paninis next! read more

I had the butter pecan latte today and it was the perfect combination of buttery and pecan flavor that I love in ice cream except in a hot latte drink. The crepes take a really long time to make (waited close to half an hour for 3) and are a bit tough. The Nutella and banana ones are tasty and come with walnuts and whipped topping. They are a bit pricey too ($9) each. There aren't too many tables inside and you can get your items to go. Friendly service. read more

Very cute and friendly coffee shop I enjoy stopping into when I'm in the area. They have a big variety of coffee and tea flavors and I enjoy trying new ones when I stop in. I like their sugar free flavors too. I like their selection of sweets and breakfast food. I've gotten the ham and egg breakfast sandwich before and it's tasty. I noticed they are often short staffed sometimes which is understandable, but you will be waiting a bit to get a hot breakfast item as I have waited over 10-15 min the most recent times I've been there and there wasn't a line. Everything I have gotten here has tasted good and inside the shop is very cute and clean. read more

Tasty little breakfast place tucked into a quite large strip mall. Don't let the strip mall setting dismay you though. The inside is nicely decorated. When you're here get the crepes. They're wonderful and HUGE. Their namesake crepe was kicked up with siriacha, really spicing up my morning. It's plated quite attractively as well! Coffee wise, I'm not sure where they source the beans or that, but the breve I got was just fine. Price was great, especially for the size of the crepe. I'm not a huge breakfast person, but those weekend mornings where I need something, this is top of my list. read more

Loved Cafe Americano. Seems relatively new but I'm not sure how long they've been here. Restaurant and bathrooms clean. Lots of seating inside and was not too busy at 1030am on a Saturday but started to get busier when we left. Delicious crepes brought out to you in about 5 minutes. The Veggie Crepe was packed with feta, eggs and vegetables so they definitely don't skimp on the filling! I'd definitely get it again. My husband loved his Signature Americano crepe which he said was packed with prosciutto. I was pleased with the London Fog. Breakfast and drinks for 2 for $25.

I have been enjoying the crepes and cappuccinos at Cafe Americano since before the COVID pandemic. I have had both the savory and sweet crepes. Stopped in today for lunch. The coffee shop is extremely clean. The inside tables are nicely spaced and there are 6-foot notifications on the floor. There are also 2 tables outside. My veggie crepe was delicious--flavorful and full. The owner delivered it to our table. Everyone is friendly. It's the little things about the restaurant that I appreciate...jade plant on the table, pretty mugs for cappuccino, art in ladies room (yes, it's a strange thing to appreciate ---but attention to detail by the owner). In addition to crepes, there are paninis and baked goods...which I hope to have someday, but love the crepes. read more

The little cafe is nothing short of spectacular. The atmosphere is so simple and relaxing, which is such a nice break from the more corporate places I'm used to in this area. The coffee is amazing, my favorites have been their Caramel Macchiato and their Pumpkin Spice Latte, and that's just the beginning. The chef, whose name I always forget to catch, makes the most amazing crepes, and panini's. (In addition he's a total sweetheart!!) The Wild Berry Crepes are literally happiness on a plate. The endlessly amazing customer service is just the cherry on top. It's my new favorite place to escape hands down! read more

I don't typically get annoyed at restaurants and try to be patient and understanding since I know it's not an easy job. It's extremely rude in my opinion to sweep while someone is eating underneath someone's table or around the area they are eating...It's also a health concern. It's also super obnoxious when someone's eating as they feel rushed. In addition it's just really disgusting to watch all the food from the day be collected into one spot right next to your table.

Spontaneous coffee meeting with good friends. Wow! Cafe Americano is a hidden gem. Not easy to find tucked between other small stores in Lebanon Shoppes, but so glad I found it. Wide variety of unique coffees, teas, lattes, smoothies and milkshakes. Most pleasant surprise was the hot panini menu. Hot Italian, Margherita Pesto were our two favorite paninis. Took one home for the husband for dinner later on, and it reheated well. Hot and crunchy as though it was first made! Between my friends and I, there was nothing we did not savor. A must-see, must-taste menu off the beaten path. Staff was courteous, and helpful. Have been there twice since my first visit, and loved it all. Limited seating, pricey but fresh, delicious food. It's a small business worth supporting. read more

I have always had a pleasant experience here, and have been impressed with their coffee and food alike. However, after seeing this advertisement today, I will not be returning. With such tragic recent events in our Pittsburgh community, I do not feel comfortable giving my business to a company that so openly flaunts firearm possession, especially so flippantly in a raffle.

I was sad to see Blue Canary Coffee close at this location, but was at least heartened when I saw the spot would be occupied by a new independent coffee shop! I had their signature Americano crepe, an iced latte, and a gluten-free donut. The crepe was seriously the best I've ever had! Perfectly cooked, generous size, and great flavor!! The cream sauce in this is unusual and amazing! The iced latte was strong, which I like. For once, I didn't have to ask for an extra shot of espresso. The donut was just ok, but glad to see a gluten-free option. I had to kill several hours while waiting on other things to be done, so I ended up getting a banana strawberry smoothie also, which was very good. Not too sweet, which I liked!! The customer service was fine. The man working at the counter was pleasant enough, but I know what the other reviewer means by "no small talk." I'm not one for over-solicitous service, so I kind of appreciate that there's not a ton of chit chat. But it was pretty sparse even for me. I think it's just his personality, but I think the other reviewer was referring to a female employee?? Just noting it because it may become an issue if this is the general vibe. Also, it was nice to see how involved the Blue Canary was with the community, and I didn't see that here. Maybe that will come with time. It would be great if they could open earlier for pre-work coffee. :) Overall, would recommend!! Great food and latte! Hoping they'll engage a little more with their customers and community. Must try the crepes!! read more

The mocha coffee I absolutely loved. It was as of someone melted a big brick of bittersweet cocoa with some sugar and cream. Rich and earthy flavor, exactly how I like.

Do yourself a favor and stop in if you can. Five stars.

The crepes are too good. The cool modern interior makes it nice to sit down and grab a quick bite. It's a nice addition to the shopping plaza since there's not a place like this around there. read more

Cons: I wasn't a fan of the syrups used for the latte, as they had a very artificial taste (you know the one) and it was overly sweet for a combo of fall savory flavors. I'd like to give them another shot, as I love a local coffee shop. Just didn't hit for me this time!

An employee promptly took our order. We sat at a table of our choosing. Several minutes later, employees brought our drinks and food to us. Here are my ratings for what we ate: Pistachio Croissant - 4.5 stars - This croissant was a large size and was covered in pistachio pieces and icing. Note that my receipt says a price of $7, although their website and restaurant menu says $6.50. Turkish Black Tea - 4 stars - This tea tasted rich and slightly bitter. Moroccan Tea - 5 stars - I first encountered Moroccan tea last year when I vacationed in Morocco. This tea tasted similarly minty and sweet. Iced Chai Latte - 3 stars - My husband ordered this drink. It was not bad, but he said that he did not like the flavor or the grittiness. The total price was $19 plus tax and tip.

I've tried a decent amount of their menu items and everything has always been delicious and filling. Highly recommend the beet and goat cheese salad as well as the chicken salad sandwich! Two of my all time favorites. The service was friendly and the food came out pretty quickly. My biggest complaint? The place is not clean. Every table that was open was dirty. Trash on the floor and under tables. I had to get some napkins wet at the water dispenser and wipe the table down myself, and it was not that busy. Went to use the restroom to wash my hands after cleaning the table and there was no toilet paper OR paper towels in the women's restroom. Had to use the men's to wash my hands. Really disappointed in this experience honestly. When a restaurant is dirty in the seating area, it makes me wonder about the state of the kitchen.

COFFEE & DRINKS: The black coffee sits between Dunkin' and Starbucks in terms of strength--not weak, but not overly bold either. The Turkish espresso was excellent and came with nice presentation (traditional cups, tray, and utensil). FOOD: Tried the butter croissant, almond croissant, chocolate mousse cake, and Turkish delights (similar to gummy candy). All were fresh and worth ordering. SEATING: 5-7 laptop-friendly spots depending on how you count the larger booths. Mix of booth and table seating, all comfortable for extended sessions. LAPTOP-FRIENDLY: Outlets available in the booth seating and alongside the larger tables. WiFi was reliable. Generally quiet during off-peak hours. ATMOSPHERE: Warm, modern, cozy Mediterranean vibe with earthy colors, soft lighting, and comfy booths. Relaxed environment that's inviting and calm--stylish without being precious or flashy. Conducive to both focus work, dates, and casual meetings. SERVICE: Baristas were friendly and sociable without being intrusive. VALUE: Standard pricing for a quality local cafe. GOOD TO KNOW: Parking can be tricky in Squirrel Hill if you're unfamiliar with the area, but street parking is ample (paid/metered or free with some walking) if you're willing to walk a short distance. Open late. Study-friendly locations near CMU tend to be busier during fall and spring semesters. I'll be back regularly for work sessions.

The Turkish coffee was served in a very unique way. They brought out the general coffee separate from a foam, which you could then mix or drink separately. Very cool, not too bitter, good texture. Bit on the expensive side but not too much. The Turkish delight was also good, but a bit overpriced in my opinion. They come straight from a box. I honestly wanted to try another one of their special drinks, but they were out. I recommend the special menu! The space itself is decently small but nice, and the girl working there was sweet and the spot is open late!

This coffee shop is located right on South Braddock Avenue in Regent Square and has both an outdoor ordering window and an indoor space. Since my wife and kids were waiting in the car and the sign said the window was served first, I decided to go that route. Because of that, there is not much more to say about the space itself other than I ordered from the sidewalk through a window. For my coffee I went with a large blueberry latte which I had seen recommended on Yelp. My wife went with an iced brown sugar cinnamon latte. Both drinks were ready within a couple of minutes and I was quickly on my way. Both my wife and I really enjoyed our coffees. The coffee itself was strong, bold and present. The syrups were flavorful and well balanced so they came through more on the finish and lingered nicely. They were not overly sweet and added a nice layer of flavor. The bottom line for me is that I would head back here again in the future. Both my wife and I really enjoyed our coffees, so it is an easy return for us.
